I installed cgroup on my linux (3.19.0+) using the following command:
apt-get install cgroup-bin
However I can't find the file /etc/cgconfig.conf. Did I miss anything?

/etc/cgconfig.conf contains information about your control groups. There isn't any useful default content. So the package doesn't come with a configuration file in /etc.
You seem to be using a Debian-based distribution. There is a sample configuration file in /usr/share/doc/cgroup-tools/examples/cgconfig.conf (containing only comments with examples).
You can find this out by knowing that the standard location for example files on Debian is /usr/share/doc/package-name/examples/. You can also find this out by looking for files named cgconfig.conf (locate cgconfig.conf, once the index of the search database has been rebuilt since you installed the package; this normally happens every night). You can also find this out by browsing through the files in the package: dpkg -L cgroup-tools. The files are actually in the cgroup-tools package and not in cgroup-bin because cgroup-bin is a compatibility package that's only there to facilitate upgrades by depending on cgroup-tools (this is explained in the description of the package).

What's the path that cgconfig.conf file has to be stored in order to be read by cgroup service? I created and changed cgconfig.conf and restarted the service, but it doesn't seem to be read by the service.NaSh– NaSh2016-03-08 18:08:55 +00:00Commented Mar 8, 2016 at 18:08

/etc/cgconfig.conf. If it isn't working, check the logs. I can't help you further with that because I'm not familiar with libcgroup.Gilles 'SO- stop being evil'– Gilles 'SO- stop being evil'2016-03-08 18:37:49 +00:00Commented Mar 8, 2016 at 18:37
